Biography
Rimush was the son of King Sargon of Akkad and his wife Tashlultum. He acceded to the throne in 2279 BC, and he faced widespread rebellions, including from rebellious ensis in Ur, Lagash, Umma, and Kazallu. He put the revolts down, but another wave of uprisings broke out with Elamite support. After Rimush successfully regained control of Sumer, he attacked Elam and its allies, winning a decisive battle between Susa and Awan. He died in 2270 BC, and his brother Manishtushu succeeded him.
